From what I've heard, they're crap. They go out if they get wet.

That's what I originally planned on, but my dad got me a $100 gift certificate to Sears, and it was what they had...:o

I have about every tool that Craftsman makes (not all Craftsman, most Snap-on and Mac), and the only thing I'd really want from them is another tool chest.

I've had those on my truck for almost 2 years now. Haven't had a single problem. They are very bright when backing up and can be turned on manually also.

Before you dismiss them as crap, find someone that has had them on their vehicle and thinks they are crap. I have had them on my vehicle and have had ZERO problems!

Been there, done that. There's a whole thread about them on here somewhere. Basically, if they get wet, they're toasted.

That wouldn;t work for me since there is more than one time that I put my rear bumper underwater to load the boat, depending on which ramp I'm at and lake levels....

Yeah, launching/loading the boat's a good way to get them wet. Loading the 4 wheeler can do it sometimes, too...

Dude..what ramps have you been launching at? Even the gravel "ramp" at the resort at Table Rock didn't even get my bumper close to the water.

You're boat probably doesnt sit as low in the water as mine either.... I try to find the steepest ramps I can to get the trailer deep enough. I dont like my back wheels touching the water, I do not want it close to the brake rotor at all.

Loking at the pics of those ramps, best I can remember, unless the ramp drops off severely under water, I'd probably have to back till the water line was about 1/2 up the side of the truck, but the back wheels would barely be deep in the water amd hope tha tthe ramp was long enough.

Especially if I buy the 42 foot cubby cabin I was looking at in arkansas yesterday....
Dont know where I'd beable to launch it or if I can even pull it..... Going back down next weekend to visit, I'll call the guy and get some more info and maybe stop and look at it again.
